I got the fuel gauge pulled from the tank and it was almost rusted through. Got a small flashlight in the inlet hole and the tank is very rusty. I then examined the new strainer assembly. The inlet pipe to the cut off valve was PACKED, not with playdo type gas, but RUST! I pulled the cutoff assembly out and have the valve and strainer assembly soaking in gas. The rust is loose so it should clean out just fine. I will get the tank to the Plainfield IN radiator shop which specializes in boiling and sealing gas tanks. I will also pull the carburetor top. If it has rust in the bowl, then the 10 feet of gas line from the fuel pump to the carburetor is rusted inside.

I will rebuild the carb and soak it in carb cleaner if I find rust in the bowl. Many Thanks Farmallers. :)
